Placido Polanco: Professional Hitman

In case you missed it, if Placido Polanco had only seven more ABs for Detroit last year, he would have qualified for the Ameican League batting title and won it with a .338 average. Moreover, he had a .386 on-base and .461 slugging percentage. Not bad for a middle infielder. They don't pay him $4.6 million a year for nothing.
